An allergy or allergic reaction refers to a body's inappropriate immune response to various stimuli, usually proteins.
The body's responses can be minimal, but may also include anaphylactic shock or even death. Allergies usually have a genetic basis. They may be present from birth or may present themselves at any later point during a lifetime.
In 2369, Odo told Quark that "the something" in Jadzia Dax's eye was an allergic reaction to him. (DS9: "The Passenger")
Later that year Julian Bashir thought he had taken an allergic reaction to replicated antipasto and was hallucinating an affectionate Jadzia (DS9: "If Wishes Were Horses")
When Elim Garak made Odo a Bajoran Militia uniform in late 2372, he asked him if he was allergic to Inkarian wool. (DS9: "Broken Link")
